Data: U.S. Census Bureau, Vintage 2025 Population Estimates ; Chart: Russell Contreras/Axios The demographic landscape of the U.S. is undergoing a dramatic outward shift as growth shifts from cities to exurban communities , according to new U.S. Census estimates . Why it matters: The places that will define the next generation may not yet have a Starbucks, a working freeway interchange at rush hour or a school that isn't overcrowded. But they have people — and they're getting more every year. - The new data released last week and analyzed by Axios show the fastest-growing places since 2020 are concentrated on the extreme outer edges of major metropolitan areas. - This will affect congressional apportionment, federal funding formulas,…
Data: Axios/Harris Poll; Chart: Danielle Alberti/Axios Democrats have become more skeptical of AI technology and the industry behind it, while Republicans are significantly more likely to trust most AI companies, according to this year's Axios Harris Poll 100 rankings .

Driving the news: The weaponization fund grew out of an extraordinary legal conflict: Trump sued the IRS for $10 billion in January while simultaneously controlling the agencies and lawyers on the other side of the case. - The taxpayer-backed fund will be overseen by a five-member commission appointed by acting Attorney General Todd…
Today's Kentucky primary is President Trump's biggest test yet of whether his iron grip on the Republican base can hold even as war and inflation batter his national standing. Why it matters: Trump is trying to take out longtime antagonist Thomas Massie in the most expensive House primary in history — a contest that will show whether his iconoclastic brand of libertarian politics still has a place in the GOP. - Until now, the seven-term Massie had never faced a serious threat to reelection. Trump changed that. - Trump's political operation launched an aggressive effort to unseat Massie last year, its first such effort to defeat a sitting Republican incumbent. - The fight between Massie and Trump -backed rival Ed Gallrein has drawn…
